— Antisense Strand (— Strand) RNA Virus Maturation and release Entry and uncoating Translation and synthesis of viral proteins RNA replication by viral RNA- dependent RNA polymerase Uncoating releases viral RNA and proteins. Nucleus Attachment Viral protein Capsid Cytoplasm Host cell – strands are incorporated into capsid The + strand (mRNA) must first be transcribed from the – viral genome before proteins can be synthesized. Additional – strands are transcribed from mRNA. RNA genome (RNA) ssRNA; – or antisense strand; Rhabdoviridae (b) Figure 13.17b
Double-Stranded RNA Virus Maturation and release Entry and uncoating Translation and synthesis of viral proteins RNA replication by viral RNA- dependent RNA polymerase Uncoating releases viral RNA and proteins. Nucleus Attachment Viral protein RNA polymerase initiates production of – strands. The mRNA and – strands form the dsRNA that is incorporated as new viral genome. Cytoplasm Host cell mRNA is produced inside the capsid and released into the cytoplasm of the host. Capsid RNA genome (RNA) dsRNA; + or sense strand with – or antisense strand; Reoviridae Capsid proteins and RNA- (c) Figure 13.17c

DNA and RNA Viruses Compared DNA: Cellular enzyme transcribes viral DNA in nucleus. DNA, reverse transcriptase: Cellular enzyme transcribes viral DNA in nucleus; reverse transcriptase copies mRNA to make viral DNA. RNA, + strand: Viral RNA is a template for synthesis of RNA polymerase.
DNA and RNA Viruses Compared RNA – strand: Viral enzyme copies viral RNA to make mRNA in cytoplasm. RNA, double-stranded: Viral enzyme copies – strand RNA to make mRNA in cytoplasm. RNA, reverse transcriptase: Viral enzyme copes viral RNA to make DNA in cytoplasm.
Cancer Activated oncogenes transform normal cells into cancerous cells. Transformed cells have increased growth, loss of contact inhibition, tumor specific transplant and T antigens. The genetic material of oncogenic viruses becomes integrated into the host cell's DNA.
Oncogenic Viruses Oncogenic DNA viruses Adenoviridae Heresviridae Poxviridae Papovaviridae Hepadnaviridae Oncogenic RNA viruses Retroviridae Viral RNA is transcribed to DNA which can integrate into host DNA HTLV 1 HTLV 2
Latent viral infections Virus remains in asymptomatic host cell for long periods. Cold sores, shingles Presistent viral infections Disease processes occurs over a long period; generally is fatal. Subacute sclerosing panencephalitis (measles virus) Figure 13.21
Prions Infectious proteins Inherited and transmissible by ingestion, transplant, and surgical instruments Spongiform encephalopathies: Sheep scrapie, Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease, Gerstmann-Sträussler-Scheinker syndrome, fatal familial insomnia, mad cow disease PrPC: Normal cellular prion protein, on cell surface PrPSc: Scrapie protein; accumulates in brain cells forming plaques PLAY Animation: Prion Reproduction
